TrueYarn: Audio Arm Miracle, Tiwa-Wizkid BFF Goals & Mercy’s Lamba
In this age of social media, if you blink twice, you may miss something. And because everything is now fast-paced, clarity is often lost in the noise of clickbait headlines, unending chatter of Twitter lords and visual excesses of Instagram sensations.
Enters TrueYarn to sift through the clutter, offer some insight, common sense and help you read between the lines of the ‘things wey dey happen for obodo Naija’.
Here goes:
BFF goals
Wizkid and Tiwa Savage are trailblazers, not only in their music careers but also in pop culture.
The singers are slowly redefining the meaning of Best Friends Forever (BFF).
From public displays of affection to bum-touching and who knows what else in ‘the other room’, the pair has shown us that even BFFs can help each other out in time of need desire.
In this never-ending rainy season, may you find a BFF that will allow you touch him or her inappropriately.
Amen.
Mercy’s Lamba
Mercy won N30 million cash from BBNaija and other millions in gifts.
Mercy bought a house reportedly worth N85 million.
Mercy’s fans say she got a HUGE discount when purchasing the house.
Mercy’s haters say it is impossible to get over N50 million as discount.
Are you still wondering why Mercy calls herself the Queen of Highlights?
Burna Boy’s vomit
Nearly two months after vowing to “never go to South Africa again for any reason”, Burna Boy is set to lap up his vomit.
The African Giant had said he would only perform in SA if the country pulls a miracle in regards to the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians.
Who knows… maybe President Muhammadu Buhari’s recent visit to SA is the miracle Burna needed to change his mind.
If Bubu can go on a fruitless state visit, ain’t nothing stopping Burna from eating his words and getting that bag.
Danny’s fruitless pursuit
Danny Young, an artist who hasn’t had a hit song in a decade, is about to waste N5 million on a case he may most likely lose.
He is suing Tiwa Savage for “stealing a verse from my 2009 hit song” – but in reality, the issue in contention is nothing close to a verse.
It is actually a Yoruba line – “Ododun la ro rorogbo, ododun la ra osa, ododun la ri omobi lorigba”.
Oddly enough, Danny Young also sampled the line from King Sunny Ade’s 1987 hit song, ‘Merciful God’.
Yeye dey smell.
Audio Arm Miracle?
Where can one person’s accident-caused physical deformity get healed by multiple pastors at different times?
Only in Nigeria… where nothing is impossible.
The internet went berserk after videos of the various ‘healings’ surfaced, with many tipping Bose Ola for a nomination at the next AMAA Awards.
But according to the now-viral woman, her ailment has a habit of relapsing after she gets healed. Meanwhile, a surgeon has said she is suffering from a nonunion fracture.
So, what were those pastors healing all along?
Side-EYE
When two girls desperate for clout alleged that Davido got one of them pregnant, everyone condemned them and empathised with the singer.
But now that he has used his influence/money to get them arrested and handcuffed, as opposed to actually suing them, he’s now as worse as the duo.
This is what happens when your fave is the leader of a ‘gang’.
